LOEX: Libguides

In this workshop, we will discuss how the information revolution affects teaching information literacy--specifically, students' need for digital wisdom.

Why Libguides?

LibGuides: interactive, welcoming, personal, and helpful online tools that librarians can use to encourage digital wisdom in students

  • proactive, always beta
    (features constantly being added, videos addressing commonly held issues.)
  • personal
    (welcome videos, twitter)
  • interactive
    (meebo, ask us )
  • reactive
    (submit a link!)

They work well for imparting digital wisdom because we can integrate social media and Web 2.0 interactivity in them, but we can also introduce academic tools such as journals databases and online reference works.Libguides CONTEXTUALIZE  digital content and learning. Examples:
